more active, and while the prices Of some staple
than healthy market would admit of, the old
est merchants are of the opinion the present
range, if no higher figures, will be maintained
for some months to come. It should be borne
in mind that sugars and coffees for some months
were selling and sugars still are, at almost I'M
paralleled low prices, and an upward movement
could but be expected.
The produce markets are active Butter con-
tinues in good demand, and even better prices
are in prospect for few weeks to come, as
there is no old stock, either good or indifferent,
to work off. The demand for eggs has fallen off,
and prices will drop still further unless the
Eastern demand should improve.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS
As the Year Advances the Business Situation
Shows Healthy Improvement

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 90.
All things considered, the business situation
could hardly be more favorable with the opening
of a new year than at the present time. Last
years bills have been well cleared up money is
easy and stocks are low, and country merchants
are wise enough to see that the tendency Of
prices on most staple articles is upward, and
they are investing their surplus funds quite lib
orally in stocking up in the articles which are
more liable to go still higher as far as prudence
will allow. For twelve mouths past the dry
goods market has been steadily advancing
on many of the most desirable lines of
goods, and at the present writing the ind cations
point to still further advances 10 prices rather
than letting down. The grocery market is

what True Merit VIII DO

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syrup, within a few years, has
astonished the world. 1t is, without
doubt, the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy md effectual
cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
lung troubles. 1t acts on an entirely diff
ferent principle from the usual prescrip-
tons given by physicians, as it does not
dry up a cough and leave the disease still
in the system, but on the contrary removes
the cause of the trouble, heals the parts
affected and leaves them in a purely
healthy condition. A bottle kept in the
house for Use when the diseases make
their appearance, will ave Doctors bills
and a long spell of serious illness. A trial
will convince you of these facts. 1t is
positively sold by all druggists and general
dealers in the land. Price, "a cents, large

Defective addresses and insufficient
postage are the main reusons why there
is a constant flow of postage matter into
the dead letter office. After reaching
the office every means is employed to
ascertain the senders or owners of the
letters and packages, and the articles of
fered at the annual sales represent the
proportion of the entire matter for which
no owner could be found. The catalogue
this year will contain some 1000 arti-
cles, n slight increase owe the number
offered for sale last year, but bearing
about the same proportion to the entire
bulk of the matter passing through the
mails. All dead mail is retained in the
dead letter Office for two years, if not
claimed sooner, before being finally dis
posed of.-Chicago Herald.
